Remarks on program function
The data for internal character sets (code pages) can be updated, i.e. programmed, changed or cleared, with this program. Data which has already been stored can also be displayed for information.
The MICROS Retail OSCAR POS program supports the following internal character sets by linking appropriate values to the environment variables InternalCodePage=" in file "oscar.ini" (for Windows or "oscar.def" for Linux, e.g. InternalCodePage=3 to activate the character set Windows 1250 East European Latin font.
If internal character sets are also to be used these should be programmed in this program under header no. 0 to 9 and stored in the database. The character sets 0 to 9 should be entered in file "oscar.ini" with the environment variables "InternalCodePage=". The value 10 e.g. refers to the character set table stored in the MICROS Retail OSCAR POS database with header no. 0.

Remarks on data fields
The following description deals with all available options for update of this basic data.
As with nearly all other programs the following also applies here:
- The entry mask for this program may differ in your MICROS Retail OSCAR POS program. Some data fields may be missing.
- There may be defaults or firmly defined selection options for some data fields. These cannot be updated in the current program.
- Fields with enforced entry defined are to be found in the entry masks as are fields where entry is optional.
- If the data record is updated over several pages of entry masks, the dialog window is reached by clicking on the appropriate button with <Mouse key 1>.
- The same procedure also applies to call up of another update program from this program.
- In some cases you may find so-called "Switches" which are activated or deactivated by the user with <Mouse key 1>, depending on the setting. Activated switches have a dark top, deactivated switches are lighter.
Header
Entry range permitted: numeric 0 - 9
The entry in this field should be the header no. (0 to 9) under which this character set is to be stored in the database.
Activation of the characters sets 0 to 9 should be defined in file "oscar.ini" with the environment variables "InternalCodePage=". Value 10, e.g. refers to the character set with header 0 as stored in the MICROS Retail OSCAR POS database.
